i would only assume that as they are not a factory supplied car they dont count were as mitsi evo eq, mr, impreza ppp, 330s are all supplied from factory

be nice to see a litchfield example give them a run for thier money though.

would be even nicer to see one put on top gear as it always makes me laugh when they put the new stanadrd impreza sti up against an evo but it always seems the evo is not the entry level option but the fq300 and not the standard gsr edition which would be more of a fairer comparrison in my book or atleat a ppp or 330s for example as they have been tuned such as the fq range

Because EVO is a fast car magazine and not really a Tuner type mag. Subaru should have built a car in the New STI that is as good as the Type 25.

They don't have to test New Mitsubishi EVO'S that have had **** loads of cash thrown at them they are good enough out of the box.

In fact it is a Turbo Technics Evo IX 500.......

Since they have opened Pandora's Box, they might as well get with the program!!

You hear that you dopey EVO muppets?!

Cheers guys, we did have the Type-25 in for quite a while but another brand complained Still we did got invited to their 100th issue where they tested some of the fastest cars they'd had on track It did very well with a 1:22.25 ""The flying Subaru Impreza has laid down an impressive 1.22.25 marker, some 5/100ths quicker than a Koenigsegg CCX!" http://www.litchfieldimports.co.uk/press07.asp

I'll ask them again to include our next car

Thanks for the link!

When exactly was the 100th issue?

They "reset" the knowledge when they added a turn or two to it, so I thought that they would have the common sense to include at least the your latest Type 20 in it..............

You guys are developing a new turbo for the current Type 20, correct?
